I’ve committed plenty of skincare sins in my time. I’ve over-cleansed, over-treated, and indulged in products that I knew were wrong for my skin type, just because I wanted to try them. However, one thing I was always sure of? The steps in my skincare routine. That is: cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize. I always thought that was the gospel order of skincare, never to be deviated from.

The Beverly Hills dermatologist to the stars believes that skin exfoliation should happen before you cleanse.

Dr. Tara Rao of the Schweiger Dermatology Group in New York City, agrees. “Our skin cells are constantly cycling. Just as we shed a few hairs, we shed skin cells everyday. When the outermost retained cells are removed with exfoliation, the deeper stem cells are triggered to produce more new cells, giving a healthy new layer.”

Diana Palmisano, PA-C was just amazing! She did the injections in my lips of Vobella. When I say gentle and painless, I mean gentle and painless. She showed me the mirror after each injection. She truly saw my vision and made it come to life. She is as professional as they get. I will 100% be back.Thank you so much Schweiger Dermatology Group.
